My GA code is on my site but Google Analytics isn't being pulled into SEOMoz...why?
-
The CEO wants me to present an SEO plan next week for three of our sites; however, I got this message when I went to campaign overview tab:
"It appears there's a problem with our connection to your Google Analytics account. Please go to your Settings page to update your connection."
I double-checked the GA code and it's the same on both our site and in SEOMoz...what gives?
I clicked on Choose Your GA Profile->Set GA Account and Profile then got this warning:
"Are you sure you want to change your Google Analytics connection? Changing your connection will reset our cache of your historical GA traffic data."
I need this data pronto so I can set strategy for three sites; any help would be greatly appreciated!

Abe,
Great, thanks for the fix! I was going to try that but, what about that mean warning I got:
"Are you sure you want to change your Google Analytics connection? Changing your connection will reset our cache of your historical GA traffic data."
If I do this, will it kill all our historical data? Will I lose the ability to look back at stuff?
Thanks,
Darrell

Thank you for reaching out to us! I am sorry that you are seeing a problem with your Google Analytics connections. Usually Roger fetches your traffic data with puppy-like enthusiasm, however sometimes there might be a delay between us and Google, so one way to alleviate that is to refresh that connection:
- Head to your campaign settings page on your overview page: http://screencast.com/t/je3mv5DkPbU
- Disconnect your Google Analytics connection: http://screencast.com/t/59NDMB0Ov
- Go back to your settings page and click on "connect account." Please make sure you log into the correct GA account.
- This should let you grab the most current traffic data!
I hope that helps, let me know if you have questions!
Have a great day,
Abe

Behavior Flow vs. All Pages report in Google Analytics
In the interest of determining why our ecommerce site isn't converting, I've been spending some quality time with GA. I've suspected that our front page is part of the problem, especially where our organic traffic is concerned (we get a good deal of referral traffic from a link on an OEM's site). According to the Behavior Flow report under the Behavior section of GA, organic traffic to our home page is hemorrhaging (roughly 60% bounce rate). But when I went to the All Pages report (Behavior > Site Content > All Pages) and looked at organic traffic to our home page, then looked at the Medium as a secondary dimension, I'm getting a bounce rate of 35%. Why the massive discrepancy? Can somebody assist?

Goal tracking in Google Analytics
Hi folks I read from various sources that if you setup goals in Google Analytics each of these goals can only be fulfilled once per visit. Also some sources suggesting that only one goal from each goal group can be fulfilled per visit. On our site we have a goal for external links since this provides value to partners. Some users do open an external link in a new tab, then come back to the main site. Any further goal completions would then not get tracked. Since we apply a result based payment model for our work this means we are literally loosing money. Anyone has official info from Google on this? Can it be configured? How long is a visit? Thanks a million and have a great day. Fredrik

Setting up Analytics on a Site that Uses Frames For Some Content
I work with a real estate agent and he uses strings from another tool to populate the listings on his site. In an attempt to be able to track traffic to both the framed pages and the non-framed pages he has two sets of analytics code on his site - one inside the frame and one for the regular part of the site. (there's also a third that the company who hosts his site and provides all these other tools put on his site - but I don't think that's really important to this conversation). Not only is it confusing looking at the analytics data, his bounce rate is down right unmanageable. As soon as anyone clicks on any of the listings they've bounced away. Here's a page - all of those listings below " Here are the most recent Toronto Beaches Real Estate Listings" are part of a frame. http://eastendtorontohomes.com/toronto-beach-real-estate-search/ I'm not really sure what to do about it or how to deal with it? Anyone out there got any good advice? And just in case you're wondering there aren't any other options - apart from spending thousands to build his own database thingie. We've thought about that (as other agents in the city have done that), but just aren't sure it's worth it. And, quite frankly he doesn't want to spend the money.

Strange increase in Direct traffic in Google analytics
For past 2 weeks, several of our sites have strange increase in direct traffic in Google Analytics. we also have another tracking code, and in this account we don't have any big changes, so this is very strange what is happening. We didn't changed any codes, and none of the changes were done to application. Any ideas why this is happening? z7ME9.jpg
